Through its app, HealthMir provides information on health through videos. It has a library of more than 2,000 videos created around 500 odd health conditions. The app, which is available on the Google Play store and App Store, also allows users to understand their health risks through personalised health trackers. Users can also book a consultation with any of the 2,000 doctors and 100 hospitals that the company has tied up with. It also runs an app called Sympler, where users can discuss their symptoms with a chatbot, while also accessing the consultation and content module. HealthMir also has corporate health solutions.

“Every 20th search in India is around health and diagnosis. So we give them [users] a platform where they can understand their symptoms. For people with diagnosed diseases, we provide them content and [help them] reach the right doctor for health management,” said Abhash Kumar, co-founder and chief executive of the startup.
